Recenzii
"Since working with James Alburger these past few years and learning the nuts and bolts of voiceover from him, I am amazed at his talent and scope of knowledge! He has taken me from novice to pro with a genuine interest in my progress. The demos he coached me for and then produced have won rave reviews and helped me land several agents and clients. My gratitude for where he’s taken me thus far can’t be measured and my respect and admiration only deepens when I now watch him work with others. He’s a very special treasure to me as a friend and mentor, and all VO talent who read The Art of Voice Acting will be the better for it!"

"I have been a successful voice over for about 10 years and recently bought and read The Art of Voice Acting. I must have been guided to do it! It was like receiving a (gentle) kick in my behind, spurring me to get re-organised, re-galvanised, newly inspired because - to say the truth - I was sitting on my laurels doing very little to perfect my skills or bring new life to my career. Now I feel full of new energy. This is what I call an inspired purchase!"
